Why These Connect
The narrative assertion

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
This connection underscores Dalek 4's continuity as a frontline technical subordinate. Their role in computing time lags and tracking deviations in Episode 32 directly informs their later role in confirming the TARDIS's stabilized trajectory in Episode 33, ensuring the pursuit remains on course. The unit's actions drive the Daleks' relentless and precise hunting strategy across episodes.
